computer issues

I has them. Which is annoying, because most of them time I like my computer. It's a little slow, sure, but it's comfy, like a worn-in pair of shoes. And everything works fine--as long as there's no video involved. If there is video, it's a complete toss up (or at least seems to be) as to whether the visual aspect will work, or whether it will freeze or just slowly fall out of sync with the sound. I keep saying I'm going to get a new computer, but as I said, everything else works just dandy, and that makes me reluctant to actually go ahead and do it. Especially since I'm kind of stymied by the plethora of options.

I don't know. Maybe I'll just keep tweaking stuff and maybe eventually something will work. (I'm a big believer in bludgeoning technology into submission through persistence.)
